four days and twenty five aprons later we are done!thanks to my two daughters who helped make this possible, the aprons are for Missionary friends of ours who wanted them for gifts for the ladies who run the schools, orphanages, bakeries etc. in Bustamante Mexico

And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring gladtidings of good things! (Romans 10:15)

kindness:the quality or state of being kind; an instance of kind behavior;to be generous

we often show kindness as thanks & to show our appreciation by doing the unexpected & going that extra mile to let them know that we love & appreciate them

(Prov.3:27) withhold not good from them whom it is due when it is in the power of thine hands to do it

notice how the scripture tells us to be kind especially when it is in the power of our hands to do it, this can be as simple as taking a friend to lunch, accompanying them to the doctor or just share an encouraging word

‘WHEN IT IS IN THE POWER OF THINE HAND TO DO IT’

throughout the word we find many who showed kindness, to name a few,

* Boaz to Ruth (Ruth cp.3)

* The Good Samaritan to the man who fell among thieves & left for dead(Luke10:33)

* David to mephibosheth in honor of Jonathan (2nd Sam.cp.9) this is a beautiful chapter how David showed kindness to the whole family because of Jonathan

have you missed an opportunity to show kindness when it was in the power of thine hands to do it?
